.......establishment cabal. They are flipping the bird to democracy and the serious people who v**ed on Tuesday.

This from The Hill:

"Hillary Clinton is expected to leave New Hampshire with just as many delegates as Bernie Sanders, even after he crushed her in Tuesday’s p**********l primary.

Sanders won 15 delegates with his 20-point victory Tuesday while Clinton won nine.

But Clinton came into the contest with the support of six superdelegates, who are state party insiders given the freedom to support any candidate they choose."

So, Bernie pounds Hillary into oblivion with the people of NH, but the Democrat Machine denies them of their voice before the v****g even took place!

She is a pox on America.

I don't think anyone is... cykedelic just h**es her...

it's a corrupt system... those in control don't quite trust we the people.

Pretty simple......she has lined up super delegates prior to the actual primaries. In fact, she started out the caucus/primary season with close to 400 delegates. You get these by cutting deals, period! It is legal corruption at its finest.......we see it everyday here in Chiraq.

The entire Democrat party, by the way, is responsible as they set it up this way. It, and Hillary, have lifted up their middle fingers to the v**ers of America.

Sorry, greenie......don't h**e her as I don't know her. I DO know she is a conniving liar who falls short even in the very low standards we set for a politician.

That' the difference between you and me, I h**e her!!!!!!

You are allowed to but it is more likely to effect you negatively than it is her.

I can live with that as long as she doesn't become POTUS.

You think Hillary cut 400 deals?

Un lax, Doc.

The Dems have their own rules, and if you're not a democrat, it doesn't concern you.

The explanation is that the give about 20% of the delegates to professional politicians, who have a big, personal interest in the process.

You could look up "super delegates" and probably find out who they are.

It is all above board and the rules have been in place (I think) since the 1980s.

This is the normal way of doing business, no corruption, nothing sneaky.

If you looked this up before you started shouting and yelling, you could have saved yourself a lot of trouble.

And you would have been respected as a knowledgeable person.

Since so many many seemed interested, I post this from Wikipedia, adding that I learned something from it, too.

"A "superdelegate" or an "unpledged delegate" is a delegate to the Democratic National Convention or Republican National Convention that is seated automatically, based on their status as current (Republican and Democratic) or former (Democratic only) party leader or elected official. Other superdelegates are chosen during the primary season. Democratic superdelegates are free to support any candidate for the nomination. This contrasts with convention delegates that are selected based on the party primaries and caucuses in each U.S. state, in which v**ers choose among candidates for the party's p**********l nomination.

Although "superdelegate" was originally coined and created to describe this type of Democratic delegate, the term has become widely used to describe these delegates in both parties,[1] even though it is not an official term used by either party.

For Democrats, superdelegates fall into two categories:

delegates seated based on other positions they hold, who are formally described (in Rule 9.A) as "unpledged party leader and elected official delegates"[2] (unpledged PLEO delegates); and
additional unpledged delegates selected by each state party (in a fixed predetermined number), who are formally described (in Rule 9.B) as "unpledged add-on delegates" and who need not hold any party or elected position before their se******n as delegates.[2]
For Republicans, there are generally 3 unpledged delegates in each state, consisting of the state chairman and two RNC committee members. However, according to the RNC communications director Sean Spicer, convention rules obligate those RNC members to v**e according to the result of primary e******ns held in their states. [3]

A common criticism is that unpledged delegates could potentially swing the results to nominate a candidate that did not receive the majority of v**es during the primaries."
